Pay to Insurers and Share Proof
Cover is arranged through Heritage and the premium is paid directly to the insurer — by the payment methods printed on your quotation — never to Now Insurance Agency. We prepare the application, check it against the insurer's requirements and follow it through to activation. Cover is typically confirmed within 1 to 5 working days of payment and complete documents, subject to insurer underwriting and acceptance.
After paying, share your proof of payment with us so we can follow the application up with the insurer. See the payment details for every insurer, or check the provider network before you choose a limit.
Heritage medical cover — frequently asked questions
How do I get a Heritage medical cover quotation?

What inpatient limits does Heritage offer?
The limits available on our quotation are listed in the plans table above. Each limit is a separate plan with its own benefits schedule, and the premium changes with the limit, the members covered and their ages.
Are outpatient, maternity, dental and optical benefits included?

How is the premium paid?
Premiums are paid directly to Heritage using the payment details printed on your quotation. Now Insurance Agency never collects client payments. Once you pay, send us the confirmation and we follow up on cover processing.
